%%%%%%%% NOTE: Put examples in ABC order at all times.%%%%%%----* Inverting this was one of the main points behind ''Amazing Nurse Nanako''. In his very first scene, Dr. Kyouji Ogami explains an operation to Nanako that he intends to put her through. Towards the end of the scene, Nanako clings to his leg, before he stomps her twice in the face and leaves. And that's just the ''first'' of their interactions; [[BadBoss Ogami is not a nice man. At all.]]* In the hentai manga "Anette XXX" one of the sisters evokes this trope saying: "A sister can tease her brother if she wants too".* In ''Manga/AxisPowersHetalia'':** Hungary sometimes beats male nations senseless more than once. {{Subverted}} in one instance, where God orders Hungary to beat France with her skillet and while she ''is'' tempted, she is still conflicted as she knows it's wrong to attack France for no reason, and "only" beats him when [[PantyShot he flips her skirt and exposes her underwear]].** Likewise, Belarus' attraction to her older brother Russia, which includes wanting to get rid of people in her way, is not portrayed as okay, and him being scared of her is genuinely heartbreaking. No wonder Russia likes his older sister better.* ''LightNovel/BakaAndTestSummonTheBeasts'':** Shouko is one of the most extreme cases of this, routinely tazing [[TheWoobie Yuuji]], [[EyePoke sticking her fingers in his eyes]] so he doesn't even look at other girls, and doing things like breaking his arm and calling it "holding hands" or breaking into his house because she felt like it (and then burning his porn), among others. What's more, the other characters actually believe they make a good couple and [[ShipperOnDeck try to pair them together]], and at the end, even Yuuji seems rather accepting of the idea. If Yuuji even did to Shouko 10% of the things she does to him, people would deride him as a monster, but Shouko can keep doing this with no backlash whatsoever. Sure, it might be a comedy, but it's taken to a level you feel more pity for the guy than anything else, and Yuuji is far from accepting the idea of being with her. That entire episode dedicated to putting them together had him trying to run away from her. Every time he tried to flee from her and avoid Shoko resulted in his friends putting them together or framing him for stuff he didn't do only to make the situation worse. When the {{jerkass}} couple continued to make a fool of themselves, Yuuji was generally trying to get them to win the contest because his friends rigged it to the point where no matter what he did, they would get the right answer. It wasn't until the end of the episode where he changed his mind about Shoko because the {{jerkass}} couple continued to make fun of them both. Next episode, he's trying to run away from her. Final episode, his best friend sold him out to her and she forced him to sign a marriage contract. StockholmSyndrome anyone?** The other girls often abuse this trope as well, such as Himeji and especially Minami towards Akihisa. While its always PlayedForLaughs, some of their actions fall into DudeNotFunny, such as when Minami breaks Akihisa's back because he didn't say "I love you" correctly to her. Granted, he's an IronButtMonkey and just walks it off, but if the roles were reversed, he'd probably be thrown in jail and the key be thrown away.* Averted in ''Manga/BlackLagoon''. [[DarkActionGirl Revy]] bullies, berates, threatens, and in several cases almost ''shoots'' NonActionGuy Rock. None of it is presented as funny, silly or acceptable. Rock eventually calls Revy out on her abuse, and barring some later cases of AngerBornOfWorry, she stops. He even becomes a MoralityPet to her.* In ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'', there are several cases of this. Almost everyone of either gender in Bleach is insanely violent in their free time, and it gets played for laughs. Guys are still almost always the victims.** While Rukia does hit Ichigo a few times (mostly at the beginning of the series [[BerserkButton in response to him criticizing her drawings]]), their first physical interaction was Ichigo kicking ''her'' in the back when she initially doesn't realize that Ichigo [[YouCanSeeMe can see her]], and after rescuing her from her execution, he proceeds to toss her down the several-stories-high execution stand for Renji to catch her. Both of these are played as comedy. ** [[BunnyEarsLawyer Shinji]] of the Vizards always gets the crap beaten out of him by [[BrattyHalfPint Hiyori]] for no other reason than her being pissed off and it's always played for [[AmusingInjuries comedy]]. She showed the same behavior towards [[RetiredBadass Kisuke Urahara]] back when she served under the 12th division, and it's likewise PlayedForLaughs.* The ''point'' of ''LightNovel/BludgeoningAngelDokuroChan''. [[CrossesTheLineTwice Ludicrously over-the-top violence]] visited on the male lead by the female lead is a series staple.* ''LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex''** This trope is played for laughs with Touma, who almost always get a punch to the face when some girl who knows him get pissed.** Index is known for biting Touma.** Then there is Mikoto, who could probably take on an army by herself and uses every single bit of that power on him. Was it not for his absurd reflexes and his PowerNullifier ability he would have been fried alive in more than one occasion, and they both seem to know it. She ''was'' shown to be horrified the one time she actually hit him when [[spoiler:he was trying to stop her from getting herself killed by Accelerator]].** Played with, in that even though Touma gets the brunt of comical violence from the ladies of the cast, it should be noted that said PowerNullifier is literally just his right hand. This usually results in him giving a beat down to the villain of the arc, be they a man, a woman, a teenage girl, an old man or a golem. All of these fights are presented as equally heroic and not once is Touma ever called out for his equal opportunity beat downs.* While this trope is generally played straight in ''Manga/DailyLivesOfHighSchoolBoys'', but in the case of [[spoiler: the [[RetiredOutlaw former]] EnfantTerrible-grade [[TheBully bully]] "Archdemon" Habara]], it was {{deconstructed}}-- it is a ''very'' serious business, indeed, especially when she is clearly [[HeelRealization quite traumatized about what she did]], not to say [[spoiler:her social life with ''any'' teenage boys in town has been ''completely ruined'' because of her her previous acts]]. Karasawa, her next-door neighbor and the worst off of her victims, harbors ''both'' a ''grudge'' and a ''phobia'' towards her.* ''Anime/DanganRonpa3'' Despair Arc:** The girls sometimes hit Teruteru but he doesn’t seem to mind it at all. In fact he actually [[TooKinkytoTorture enjoys it!]]** A gender inverted example. Hajime Hinata, as Izuru Kamakura, stepped on Junko Enoshima multiple times and backhanded Mukuro Ikusaba as he was defending himself from each of their attacks. He also stomped on Junko’s head in order to knock her out after she had convinced him to join her in turning the world into despair. Junko [[TooKinkytoTorture savors]] the feeling of despair when Izuru stomps on her. Mukuro on the other hand, clearly was not fond of getting hit by Izuru at all. * ''Manga/DeathNote'':** Misa Amane and Light Yagami have a very unhealthy "relationship" if it can be called that at all. Misa [[StalkingIsLove stalks Light]] and [[{{Yandere}} forces a relationship with him.]] It is shown time and again that he appears to have no sexual interest in her and only tolerates her presence because he needs her for her powers and to keep her close [[SecretKeeper to keep her from spilling his secrets]]. If he refuses her she could kill him. However after her initial appearance enraged Misa '''isn't taken seriously''' despite the fact that she could just as easily kill him as he could kill her. The "men are MadeOfIron and women are MadeOfPlasticine" idea doesn't matter much when you can kill someone [[ArtifactOfDoom by writing on a piece of paper]]. Her slapping him around is PlayedForLaughs and is seen as allegedly "deserving" of being hit when he admits he doesn't feel the same way about her. She only gets away with her pushy and sometimes violent behavior because of the [[WouldntHitAGirl male characters' chivalry.]]** Aizawa is also a victim of this, coming into work with a bandaged head one day. When asked about it, he says he and his wife were in a fight, and the other men barely register that he's been ''physically injured'' by his wife.* ''Manga/DetectiveConan'': A unique variant pops up in ''Anime/LupinIIIVsDetectiveConan''. The FemmeFatale Fujiko of Lupin's series finds out that Conan is actually a teenager who's been turned into a child, so the film ends with us hearing the sounds of her "examining" him to find "the secret to rejuvenation." This is entirely in-characer for Fujiko, and we only get the audio, but imagine how unsettling this would have been had a GenderFlip been involved. Even when Conan is at his normal age, Fujiko is still much older than he is. * In the original ''Manga/DragonBall'', Bulma and Yamcha's relationship is like this. Sometimes, Bulma would hit Yamcha when she accuses him of flirting with other women.* The manga ''Duck Prince'' has a disturbing example. The main character, a real {{Sensitive Guy|AndManlyMan}} was "[[HollywoodHomely ugly]]" in the eyes of everyone. But he rescues his LoveInterest's dog in a car accident and falls into a coma. While in coma a doctor preforms MagicPlasticSurgery on him, and he's now a {{Bishonen}}. His verbally abusive family now loves him and his new life can begin. One day he helps his drunk older sister home after beating her boyfiend. She hits on him and says that [[NotBloodSiblings how can they actually be siblings]] when she's so beautiful and he was so ugly, she then strips him and in the next panel can they be seen naked in bed with him crying and her saying it must've been his first time. This is disturbingly treated as okay InUniverse and by some of the fandom, InUniverse because "AManIsAlwaysEager" or something {{Unfortunate|Implications}} like that.* Subverted with Celty and Shinra in ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}''. Sure, Celty punches Shinra and wraps him up in her shadows all the time, but it is outright stated that [[TooKinkyToTorture Shinra actually]] ''[[TooKinkyToTorture enjoys]]'' [[TooKinkyToTorture the abuse]] and tends to goad her on for it. It's a very symbiotic relationship.* Subverted and inverted all the way and then some in ''Manga/ExcelSaga'', both the manga and the anime versions, where it's Lord Il Palazzo's physical and psychological abuse of his female, lovesick subordinate [[GenkiGirl Excel]] that is (most of the time, anyway) PlayedForLaughs.* Largely averted in ''Manga/FairyTail''. There are several times (more so early in the series) where Erza dealing corporal punishment to Natsu and Gray is portrayed as comedic, but it's only after repeatedly challenging and getting beaten up by her that the two are afraid of her. Natsu unintentionally hits Erza twice during the Sun Village arc (with Gray the first time), and its played for comedy. In the aftermath of the Edolas arc, a sleeping Natsu punches Lucy through the roof while fighting in his dreams, and that too is PlayedForLaughs. * Louise in ''LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero'' can get frighteningly violent towards Saito and he's the only one that has a problem with it. Many fans found it horrifying even without the gender-flipping. Many [[AbandonShipping bailed]] on the Louise/Saito pairing after one incident has her beating on him with a whip until he passed out bloody and bruised.* In ''Manga/FruitsBasket'':** Machi is [[{{Tsundere}} incredibly aggressive when she gets embarrassed]] (and [[ShrinkingViolet she's shy]] so she gets easily embarrassed) and her half-brother Manabe gets it the worst. Once when Manabe gave her a embarrassing and rather forward compliment she punched him in the face through a bag of meat and Yuki looked onward calmly stating he told Manabe he'd be hit if he said that. Even his girlfriend was more concerned with the meat than Manabe, but she kinda has an obsession...** Manabe even lampshades it at one point, when he comments "I'm risking my life playing the stooge here." It was said in regards to Yuki, but he seems to have the same goal for Machi (getting them both out of their shells).** Kagura's abuse of Kyo is played for laughs. [[spoiler: However, this eventually changes somewhat when Kagura comes to realise that she cannot force Kyo to love her, and she apologises to him for her behaviour.]]** To a slightly lesser extent, Uotani towards Kyo as well. She picks fights with him whenever she feels like when he's otherwise not bothering her at all. Kyo explicitly states after having his chair kicked by her because "it's easy to kick" that he doesn't retaliate BECAUSE she's a woman.** Interestingly, this trope is subverted with [[spoiler:Akito, the BigBad (who dresses as a male because of her mother's abuse but is biologically female) and Ren, the aforementioned abusive mother. Half of the plot is caused by these two women trying to hurt each other and, by proxy, the rest of the Sohma family. The damage they cause is never excused on the grounds of their gender]]. Ultimately, the manga's [[MoodWhiplash seesawing between drama and comedy]] results in a confusing DoubleStandard.* Winry from ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' beats Ed with a spanner (one time even a chainsaw) every time he breaks his [[ArtificialLimbs automail]] (that's often).** The 2003-2004 anime also played this trope straight when [[spoiler: Ed and Al]] were beaten bloody by their former teacher [[spoiler: Izumi Curtis]]. What makes it worse is that she is a grown woman and they are children/young adolescents. It's ''supposed'' to be TrainingFromHell.** Major Alex Armstrong suffers major abuse at the hands of his sister, the badass General Olivier Armstrong. She sees him as weak, worthless, and a disgrace to their family name, and either verbally abuses him or beats the crap out of him every time they see each other. There is an air of professionalism to this, as they're both members of the military and Olivier is her brother's superior, but her bullying of him is far meaner than anyone under her command (which says a lot). We later find out that there's more to it: [[spoiler: The reason she views Alex as a failure is because he succumbed to post traumatic stress during the Ishvalan massacre and lost his will to fight. More specifically, it was because he "ran away" rather than try to do something about it about the injustice. He brings this up when he and Olivier fight Sloth and he proclaims he won't run away again. ]]* Inverted with two minor characters from ''Manga/FutariEcchi''. First it looks like it will be PlayedForDrama that the shy and timid woman is beaten by her jerkass boyfriend, but after it's revealed that he punches her, when she injures him through her clumsiness (tripping and pouring scalding hot coffee on him, running him over with her bike, etc.) it's PlayedForLaughs.* Like most harem anime, ''Manga/GirlsBravo'' uses this [[PlayedForLaughs for comedic purposes]]: ** Kirie brutally beats up her best friend, Yukinari, for things [[NotWhatItLooksLike that aren't his fault]] at several points during the series. But [[JerkSue no one ever calls her out on it]], or even tries to stop her. Though she lets up on him in season 2 and begins to act more like a real friend towards him.** Her treatment of [[HandsomeLech Fukuyama]] is a different matter, since he usually brings it on himself by repeatedly groping her and pulling up her skirt, so he can see what color panties she's wearing and ''what kind''. Which usually goes on for several seconds before she either [[MegatonPunch decks him]], or flattens him [[WrestlerInAllOfUs with one of her suplexes.]]** Kosame often shoots Fukuyama, under his sister's orders, whenever he gets in the way of her attempts to get with Yukinari. Fukyuyama [[ToonPhysics will usually recover within seconds]] and express his disapproval, only for Lisa to silently order Kosame to shoot him again.* Inverted in ''LightNovel/HaiyoreNyarkosan'' where Mahiro Yasaka hitting Nyarko and Cuuko is treated as [[PlayedforLaughs comedic]]. * ''Anime/HellGirl'' subverts this. There are abusive men in multiple episodes, but one of the first season's episodes has a woman getting sent to Hell for using her boyfriend as an open wallet and then abandoning him when his money ran out. One episode of ''Mitsuganae'' has an abusive mother whose husband left her over the abuse, though she doesn't get sent to Hell. The guy who does get sent to Hell is implied to also have issues with his mother (albeit different ones), and wanted the VictimOfTheWeek (the woman's son) to suffer as he did. The episode ends in a way that suggests that the son is going to be making his mother's life a lot harder from there on.* Hajime's list on how to calm girls down in ''Manga/ICantUnderstandWhatMyHusbandIsSaying'' lampshades this:-->3. It can't be helped even if you get hit* ''Manga/{{Inuyasha}}'' sees the title character get abused quite often by love interest Kagome, whose frequent cries of "Osuwari!/Sit, boy!" send Inuyasha {{Face Plant}}ing into the ground thanks to a cursed necklace. It gets to the point where [[SayMyName Kagome shouting Inuyasha's name]] is enough to send shivers down his spine, and all of it is played for laughs. Meanwhile, Inuyasha is treated as in the wrong for such minor offenses as not thanking Kagome for making lunch.* ''[[LightNovel/{{Kampfer}} Kämpfer]]'' has Natsuru getting beat up by the girls no matter what gender he is in. * Averted in the fifth ''LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai'' movie where Tomoe's parents are mutually abusive to one another, and Tomoe's mother hitting his father in the back of the head with a skillet [[spoiler:and killing him before killing herself and Tomoe in a murder-suicide]] is played as horrific and wrong on all sides.* ''LightNovel/KazeNoStigma'' - Averted. [[{{Tsundere}} Ayano]] often tries to slap or burn the more powerful [[TheStoic Kazuma]] but he usually blocks it. In fact, its almost genderflipped in that while Kazuma never hits Ayano, he is able to tease her, be a [[JerkAss jerk]] to her, or incite her jealousy with impunity. It is '''HILARIOUS''' to watch.* ''Manga/LoveHina'':** Keitaro gets horribly abused by every female he encounters. Just about every other scene ends with Keitaro getting hit by one of the girls, either unfairly or for no reason, sometimes forcing him into seeing flesh just so they can abuse him. And ''he'' blames ''himself'' for this. Naturally, it's PlayedForLaughs. This is so intense and continuous it's enough to scare a good number of readers away immediately; people who know about the series often joke, "If anything turns you off about it, it'll be this."** The manga's better about this; Naru especially is called on her behavior at least once, Keitaro eventually learns to avoid these attacks, and the girls stop doing them eventually. Also, when Naru tried the same thing on someone who wasn't Keitaro, [[RealityEnsues she got in trouble with the police, and was almost arrested for assault]], which also convinced her to back off. Furthermore, when Keitaro's little sister Kanako first entered the picture, she subjected all of the Hinata's residents to a major HumiliationConga to punish them for their actions.* Creator/KenAkamatsu seems to have largely outgrown this trope during the course of his long-running ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima''. Considering Negi's only about 10 years old and the girls are fifteen, he probably thought it would look like child abuse, though in one story arc where Negi was aged up to 15 or so, he suffered a few Keitaro-esque smacks in the face himself. Later, when Anya, Negi's best friend from home, comes to visit him, she's able to beat him up as much as she wants (with flaming punches and kicks, no less) since they're the same age.* ''Manga/KotouraSan''** Daichi gets smacked around by Yoriko in episode 3 after he jokingly teased [[{{telepathy}} Haruka]] about wanting to dissect her (in PokeInTheThirdEye fashion) while they were alone.** Hiyori gets to beat up Manabe [[EasilyForgiven with impunity]], which is rather audacious considering she was responsible for sending him to the hospital with serious injuries earlier, escaping all punishment for that caper because she was "sorrowful".*** Worse, in the manga adaptation he was ''stabbed''.** Haruka's mom, generally considered a [[JerkassWoobie colossal bitch]], also assaults Manabe rather viciously in public without any repercussions, and it is treated as [[PetTheDog vaguely heartwarming]] that she still cares enough about Haruka to come to her defense (never mind that she herself is treating Haruka far worse than Manabe ever would).* ''LightNovel/KyoKaraMaoh'' It's apparently perfectly ok for girls to hit ''the king himself'' and then remark that 'men need training' (with the implication being that they are [[UnfortunateImplications there to serve women]]). Apparently a certain technically minded woman thinks it is 'enlightened' to jump in right after Yurri saves the day and slap the crap out of him. What? What the hell did he do wrong?* ''VisualNovel/MajiDeWatashiNiKoiShinasai'': In episode 2, the girls chase after a dog in the bath house naked. They then catch it when it runs into Yamato's room. After some initial embarrassment and screaming, the next scene shows Yamato all bruised up as they continue chasing after the dog.* In ''Manga/{{MAR}}'', it's not so much abuse as it is sexual harassment, but Dorothy pretty much harasses Ginta on a daily basis against his consent (often he's extremely annoyed by this, but too nice of a guy to really call her out on it), and the only person bothered by it is Snow, but only because she's jealous because she is crushing on him pretty hard. This is always PlayedForLaughs but whenever Jack or Nanashi try to do anything perverted (or sometimes even when they AREN'T trying), they get chewed out bad.* Gender inverted in ''Manga/MariaHolic''. Mariya, who is a boy cross-dressing as a female, has no problems stepping on Kanako which Kanako herself [[TooKinkytoTorture enjoys it]] until she realizes Mariya is [[WholesomeCrossdresser actually a boy]].* Played with in ''Anime/MawaruPenguindrum''. Ringo beats up / slaps Shouma around at the beginning and it's PlayedForLaughs as well as a {{Tsundere}} trait. {{Averted}} later as CharacterDevelopment ''and'' CerebusSyndrome kick in and she stops doing so.* Jiro from ''LightNovel/MayoChiki'' is forcefully beaten up by his sister for "wrestling practice" every morning, and as a result develops gynophobia similarly to Yukinari from Manga/GirlsBravo from it. He's also attacked regularly by Subaru as well, yet its entirely PlayedForLaughs, and no one seems to mention anything about it.* ''Anime/MekakucityActors'': Kido gut-punches or foot-stomps [[TheGadFly Kano]] a lot - usually after he makes fun of her, Momo or Marry. It kind of becomes DudeNotFunny if one knows [[spoiler:that Kano spent his early years as his mother's punching bag ([[ConsummateLiar but whether or not he told anyone is something else entirely]])]].* Being a GenreDeconstruction of the FightingSeries PlayedForLaughs, ''Manga/MutekiKanbanMusume'' has males Kankuro and Akihiko get routinely beaten by females Miki and Megumi. Akihiko, as an adult, WouldntHitAGirl, but Kankuro as an AdultChild definitely WouldHitAGirl… if only he could, but he CantCatchUp with Miki. All of them are presented as {{Adult Child}}ren that only an idiot would try to imitate.* In ''Manga/MysteriousGirlfriendX'', Urabe's treatment of Tsubaki gradually moves from mild aloofness and [[CloudCuckoolander weirdness]] to mind-games that have an increasingly abusive element to them. In the later chapter she adds physical abuse as well, when she [[spoiler:almost bites Tsubaki's finger off after agreeing that he could place it in her mouth]]. However she did this mainly to finally make him forget about another girl he couldn't stop thinking about, despite wanting to. [[spoiler:And it worked.]]* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'': Jiraiya had 6 broken ribs, both arms and legs broken as well as several ruptured organs for trying to peep on Tsunade. And he counted it as one of 2 moments where he nearly died. Now imagine that with the genders in the other direction. [[SarcasmMode Ha, ha! Hilarious!]]** Also seen in the anime where much of the filler arcs contain Sakura knocking around Naruto for no clearly defined reason for comedic purposes. This is part of what lead to her vocal {{Hatedom}} within the fanbase, though she's not as bad in the manga.* Generally played straight in ''Manga/OnePiece'' as Nami seems to have free reign to beat up her male friends whenever they annoy her (even mildly), but also occasionally subverted. [[FemmeFatale Kalifa]] taking advantage of [[ChivalrousPervert Sanji's]] WouldntHitAGirl tendencies in battle via kicking him the [[GroinAttack groin]] and brutally beating him is painted as being dishonorable on her part. Also, though he never hits Nami back (likely since she only ever hits him in "comical" situations), [[TheHero Luffy]] was depicted as justified after punching Vivi (who's also a close friend) in the face when she suddenly [[ArmorPiercingSlap slapped him]] ''hard'' during what was otherwise a civil argument.* Kouki gets beat up by his sister Ruri in episode 3 of ''Manga/OneechanGaKita'', simply because she thought he was about to fight Tomoya, the younger brother of her friend Ichika.* Kuromi constantly does this to Baku in ''Anime/OnegaiMyMelody'', usually with the use of a paper fan, or with her own hands. * In ''LightNovel/ThePetGirlOfSakurasou'', after Nanami moves into Sakura Hall, Sorata sees her sleeping by the table in the dining room. He puts a blanket on her, but she wakes up, and punches him in the face, and accuses him of making her move in to take advantage of her. He then reminds her where he found her sleeping.* The ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' anime has a few examples of this - meant to be non-romantic, but considering the series's huge [[ShipTease shipping base]], it could be viewed as romantic:** Jessie commonly hits her teammates James when she feels he is incompetent, and a similar situation for her treatment of her male (humanoid) Pokemon Meowth.** James' ex-fiancee, Jessibelle, definitely has an abusive nature. Whenever they meet as adults, James does everything in his power to get away from her.** Bulbasaur's introduction episode subverts and inverts this: Brock punches Misty in the head twice when she teases him about a girl he has a crush on and it's played for comedy. 4Kids Entertainment, notorious for otherwise removing any indication of violence from their anime dubs, even leaves this scene intact in English!* Creator/RumikoTakahashi frequently makes use of this trope. Case in point, three of her best-known series -- ''Manga/UruseiYatsura'', ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'' and ''Manga/InuYasha'' all make heavy use of this in the name of [[ComedicSociopathy comedy]]. It seems that she has heard of the flak she was getting for this, though, as the trope is avoided in her current work, ''Manga/{{Rinne}}''.** In ''Manga/UruseiYatsura'', Ataru Moroboshi is constantly harassed by the women in his life. In particular Lum uses her electricity to shock him five times a day (due to her being [[ClingyJealousGirl insanely possessive of him]]) and Shinobu and Ryuunosuke beat him senseless with their super-strength and martial-arts respectively.** ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'' uses this so much that for early '90s anime fans it was considered the Queen of this trope. The series is notorious for how the [[BelligerentSexualTension interactions]] between Ranma Saotome and Akane Tendo many times boiled down to "Ranma says something insulting, purposefully or accidentally, and Akane gives him a MegatonPunch, [[ATwinkleInTheSky boots him (through the roof need be) into LEO]], [[ArmorPiercingSlap slaps him]], hammers him over the head with a random object or otherwise physically abuses him in response".** And in ''Manga/InuYasha'', she largely dispenses with {{Megaton Punch}}es, and presents instead a simple scenario: a half-demon, wearing a cursed necklace which allows their master to force to the ground the one who wears it with a single word and as the series goes on this ability is often used for even minor transgressions. [[GenreSavvy Given the page you're reading]], no points for guessing that it's a male half-demon, a female who controls the collar that frequently uses it over romantic angst, and that it is played for comedy. There's also the frequency with which Sango hits/slaps/bludgeons Miroku for groping her (before their engagement) and flirting with others (after it).* In ''Manga/RequiemOfTheRoseKing'' Margaret is extremely abusive to Henry. It's never, ever PlayedForLaughs. * Deconstructed in ''Manhwa/OperationLiberateMen.'' It is perfectly acceptable for women in the Para Kingdom to abuse men for perceived wrongs, or even for no reason at all. Nobody but Sooha, a foreigner, even bats an eye at the murdered corpse of a man. However, Sooha often ridicules the women for their abuse and allowing such a mindset to exist.* Kaori and Tsubaki are the main offenders in ''Manga/YourLieInApril'' to the point both of them became sort of BaseBreakingCharacters because of their actions.* ''Manga/{{ReKan}}'':** The girls often hit Kenta Yamada no matter if he deserves them or not and it treated as [[PlayedforLaughs humorous]] as he doesn’t seem to mind them. ** Kogal spirit girl sometimes smacks Roll-call samurai around.** Masaki, Kenta’s older brother and a cop, got hit multiple times by Kyouko Esumi* ''Anime/RuneSoldierLouie'' subverts this in episode 12, when Louie fights [[AmazonianBeauty Jeanie]] back, after she decks him for coming back for her after she told him to leave. Jeanie took it personally, because it reminded her of the time when [[spoiler: her former comrade, Hector, [[HeroicSacrifice sacrificed himself by staying behind]] so she wouldn't have to]]. At the time, she thought he'd done it because [[spoiler: she was a woman]] and made the same assumption about Louie. She finds she was wrong on both counts, after Farbe sets the record straight by telling her the truth about why [[spoiler: Hector]] had done it.* Averted in ''LightNovel/TheSacredBlacksmith''. After Cecily beats up Luke for witnessing her wardrobe malfunction, he's very upset with her, and she's ashamed of what she did.* ''Manga/{{Sekirei}}'', being a harem series at heart, has several running jokes concerning {{Tsundere}} [[MagicalGirlfriend Magical Girlfriends]] using their powers on their love interests. It's treated as comical, even when people are being electrocuted or thrown across the room.* Averted in ''Sensitive Pornograph'' with Mari. Ten days after his wife's accidental death, he's still badly bruised. His childhood friend Gouzou is worried and somewhat shocked when he hears of the domestic abuse. Also PlayedForDrama and [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming heartwarming]] as Mari's little twin sons ask Gouzou to not hurt Papa.* ''Manga/SgtFrog'' breathes this trope, expect it to be played on a daily basis. It doesn't help that all female characters in the show are generally far stronger than the males and one of them is an ''infamous galaxy destroyer.''* In ''Manga/SketDance'':** Repeatedly played for laughs with Bossun, [[VitriolicBestBuds who would often get on Himeko's nerves]], and thus end up experiencing a world of pain. So much, that he gets both hands broken. Ouch. ** Also, one of the characters the Sket Dan help, [[HugeSchoolgirl Koma-chan]], has a tendency to violently shove or throw people when she's embarrassed. Considering she's [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower insanely strong]], this can have painful results, so much so that the group start referring to it as the "Koma-Cannon". Guess who's always on the receiving end? You guessed it, [[ButtMonkey Bossun]].** Averted in the "Ogress" backstory arc, where the abuse is ''very'' much not intended to be funny.* ''Anime/SonicX'' turns Amy Rose's {{Tsundere}} quirks UpToEleven, her temper leading to her pulling out her hammer on people for trivial reasons (usually Sonic).* Yami in ''Manga/ToLoveRu'' makes her hatred of "ecchi" people clear by hitting or slashing at men or boys (especially Rito) who ''accidentally'' get a look under her skirt or touch her breasts - or even just look at her with too much admiration. But when a girl fondles her while another flips up her skirt to check out her panties, she merely asks them - rather weakly - to please stop.** Invoked in a chapter of Darkness where Rito, [[FreakyFridayFlip in Haruna body]], slips in the hallway on a banana peal and accidentally gropes Yami. Yami states that Haruna gropes her just as Rito has, but because it is Haruna she will let it slide.* ''Manga/{{Working}}'' double subverts this one. The series tells us [[DoesNotLikeMen Inami]] is not supposed to hit men and is bad when she does it, yet they not only almost always show her violence PlayedForLaughs, when her habitual "target" Souta gets fed up and [[WhatTheHellHero calls her out on this]], ''everyone'' treats him as the bad guy and acts as if Inami didn't deserve his calling out, thus firmly planting the series in this trope, period.* Shizuru Kuwabara from ''Manga/YuYuHakusho'' in how she treats her younger brother, regularly beating him up for the most trivial of reasons to the point that he is ''deathly terrified'' of her. Becomes true FridgeHorror when you realize where Kuwabara's desire to never fight with women comes from.** Surprisingly averted in Yusuke's case. Although there are a couple times where Botan smacks him annoyance, there are also a couple times where he does the same to her (when she nearly and almost immediately blabs about her being Death for one), all PlayedForLaughs. He also delivered an ArmorPiercingSlap to Keiko near the end of the Dark Tournament arc, and while not portrayed for comedy like when he's smacked Botan, and it was to [[GetAholdOfYourselfMan snap her out]] of a HeroicBSOD, and he wasn't portrayed in any negative light.----
